@jeffmarc Can Fosamax be taken with food or beverages, i.e. my morning coffee with milk?

I was alendronate, the generic of Fosamax, for a short period. The directions I received were only water for two hours after taking the pill on an empty stomach. I cheated a bit by having tea at an hour and a half. I had no digestive problems with Alendronate. Due to poor results after a year of oral medication, my oncologist switched me to Prolia, an injection every 6 months.

It must be taken before eating. On an empty stomach I take Prilosec every morning and have to take it on an empty stomach. I took Fosamax first waited 30 minutes and then took Prilosec and waited 30 minutes.
I had to get up at least a half an hour early that one morning to take the Fosamax once a week.
